*Merlin laughed. It didn't matter to him if the water landed on the floor. The most important thing to him, was that Gawain was happy. He looked down at the bouncing baby with a warm smile.*
"I understand why your mother love you so much. You don't get angry very often, do you? And everybody loves a happy face."

*Merlin laughed and lifted the little boy out of the bathtub. Then he dried him off, put on a clean diaper, and dressed him in his tiny pajamas.*
"I think that's enough bathing for a day, kid. Now it's time to go to sleep. We don't want you to be a creature of the night now, do we?"

*Gawain frowned but didn't complain. Not that he looked tired either though. He squirmed about restlessly.*

*Merlin lifted up the little boy and carried him into the nursery, where he placed himself in a comfortable chair by the window. He pointed out of the window, showing the boy the world outside.*

*Merlin pointed up at the moon and the stars.*
"Look there, Gawain. When you see the stars twinkle at night, and you miss someone, it might comfort you to know that they may be looking at the same stars as you do at night. It brings a kind of connection between yourself and the person you are missing."
*He cradled Gawain in his arms and started singing softly.*
When you wish upon a star Makes no difference who you are Anything your heart desires Will come to you
If your heart is in your dream No request is too extreme When you wish upon a star As dreamers do
Fate is kind She brings to those who love The sweet fulfillment of Their secret longing
Like a bolt out of the blue Fate steps in and sees you through When you wish upon a star Your dreams come true

*Merlin carried the little, sleeping boy to his crib, and tucked him gently in his blanket. Then he stroke his tiny cheek gently.*
"Good night, laddie."
*He whispered and sat down in a chair next to the bed with a book.*

*Malefica entered her fortress and found her way to the nursery, eager to see her beloved child again. She walked quietly over to the crib, leaning over it to watch her baby.*
